Lakemoor

The early morning mist lifts off the lake's still surface as moorhens call across the water, while the soft Devon light filters through overhanging willows. This is Lakemoor, where the gentle sounds of waterside life replace the usual campsite bustle.

Perfect for campers, caravanners, and campervans seeking a straightforward, traditional camping experience in the South West, this site sits within Devon's patchwork of green valleys and historic market towns. It's the kind of place where you can simply pitch up and let the slower pace of rural Devon work its magic, whether you're exploring nearby moorland trails or content to while away hours watching dragonflies skim the lake.

The facilities are refreshingly uncomplicated – clean toilets and showers provide the essentials without unnecessary frills. Check about campfires when you arrive, as policies can vary. The overall atmosphere leans toward peaceful and unassuming, a lakeside retreat where the main attraction is the water itself and the tranquil countryside that surrounds it.
